Lots of fluff, not much detail. Of course people with power will buy early into everything, including crypto. And we know Ripple is the bank's preferred form of crypto. But nothing has changed with Bitcoin - they may try to buy the onramp to it (Coinbase, etc.) but they have no control over where you go with it once you're in.

Bullshit.  Pretty much everything on that whole website looks like bullshit.

He's talking about AXA investing in Blockstream, and then trying to link Barry Silbert to AXA by pointing out that he's part of Blockstream.  Then they try to associate DCG with AXA due to that, and then try to associate AXA with every company that DCG invests in.

Regardless, even if AXA did have "control" over what these companies chose to do (they don't), it wouldn't matter unless they took action directly supporting them.
